Tonality
D G Em A F#m



 D
A winterʼs day
      G               D
In a deep and dark December;
 Em A  G D
I  am alone,
 Em             A      Em                A
Gazing from my window to the streets below
      Em             G                A
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.

        D
I am a rock,
         A  D
I am an is-land.
            D
Iʼve built walls,
   G                 D
A fortress deep and mighty,
      Em   A   G   D
That none may penetrate.
   Em              A           Em                A
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
       Em               G           A
Itʼs laughter and itʼs loving I disdain.
        D
I am a rock,
         A  D
I am an is-land.
               D
Donʼt talk of love,
      G                 D
Iʼve heard the words before;
      Em   A         G   D
Itʼs sleeping in my memory.
       Em                A          Em                 A
And I wonʼt disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
      Em            G                A
If I never loved I never would have cried.
        D
I am a rock,
         A  D
I am an is-land.
           D
I have my BOOKS
        G            D
And my poetry to protect me;
      Em   A         G   D
I am shielded in my armor,
 Em           A     Em             A
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
   Em               G              A
I touch no one and no ONE TOUCHES me.
        D
I am a rock,
         A  D
I am an is-land.
       G     F#m      D
And a rock  feels no pain;
        G      F#m   D
And an island never cries.
